Tracee Ellis Ross told Page Six that at her 40th birthday party, she stripped and showed her friends “all the places on my body I was self-conscious about . . . I started by taking my dress off and stood there in my bra and underwear slowly turning around and pointing to all the places on my body I was self-conscious about,” the “Black-ish” star said, “because I felt like I need to embrace those parts and love those parts.”

Talking to us at the Chico’s “How Bold Are You?” event at Joe’s Pub, Ross added that she singled out “that underarm skin” and “skin by my knees,” but — “At 45, I feel the most beautiful and sexiest I have ever felt.”

Molly Ringwald made an appearance performing three numbers, including “I Feel Pretty” from “West Side Story.”
